05x05 - The Clementine Jones Story

[bunniefuu]

Oh, I'm going
to take care of those supplies, Chris.

No, I'll get them. Bill.

Hey, this nice little town, isn't it?

Yeah.

First time I came through here. Thanks.

And my drivers got drunk, shot up the city
hall, cost me $250 to bail them out.

Back in time.

Somebody forgot to run a campfire
or that dry, wind blown

burn up or wagon stampeded the mule.

My best horse broke his leg.

I had to sh**t third time. I was lucky.

Yes. Got a load of bad faith over there
in that restaurant, flat on my back

for six days and told me at night
the little town,

you know, has the Indian sign on me.

Don't know

what time you got.



My tonight bank Since Monday.

One, two, three, four straight days.

Cashier walked through the door
of that bank on the date of 9:00

every day for four straight days.

The day he don't show up at all.

It's Friday the 13th

farm.

What are we going to do about my job?

That woman has spread more happiness

from one end of this town to the other
than the whole town founded Purity League.

And you know it.
All right, you come with me.

Come on.

We'll go down there the end of the street,
and you tell her nothing doing.

I have a bank to open.

Besides, you're the mayor.

You tell.

Everyone.

That you're

all right.

I've got a deal
making a public spectacle of me.

I don't like it. I'm very sorry,
Miss Joan.

Don't call me Miss Joan.

You don't know me
that well. My name's Clementine,

and I want you to know all of

you fine, upstanding members
of the Cinnabar Purity League.

But the deed you've done this day
and the wound you've inflicted will never,

never heal.

I will carry it festering in my.

In my grave.

Miss Jones. Please.

He who steals my purse, steals trash.

But he that filch is from me.

My good name, Clemmie.

I want you to know that my hands are tied
as a public servant.

I've got to follow
the will of my constituents.

Never mind the speeches.
Well, here we are.

Here,
Put this woman on the stage right before.

We even.

I can do.

We've got kind of a
of a nervous meeting here, Chris.

Yes, the clap hands and boiler
and oil society want to join.

Right. I'd be outnumbered in the loading

bank open yet?

Yeah, the cashier just went in.

Thank you.

Good luck.

Miss the bank.

That reminds me.

Odd man stays with the horse.

It's hard.

Good luck, boy.

Make it a sweeping

exam.

I think they all Pennsyl Scranton.

Just like I did last year
for half a million dollars.

Not that seems like a little sandpaper
to smooth it up.

You don't know our board of directors

when you pull them out.

Morning, Report.

Phone up my luck.

Hold luck
Every time I hit this town a barn ball

Me Well,
you don't want to get superstitious.

No, I don't.

All I want to get is ought to find a bar
with a hole, hide anything.

Every time I set foot in
this town, put up your hands.

Something happen

to the cash box,

Put it into the safe slot, then open it.

I don't know the combination.

I got a short fuze, Mr..

Now open up that safe

to do what?

The man says that.

You're in luck.

And what I tell you, sweetheart.

Sugar

Daddy, I like you.

I don't. Know.

I know the stage is waiting,
but it's going to wait 5 minutes

long until I brought my $17.40.

Well, why didn't you do that yesterday?
I didn't think of that.

But the thing to take off without you,
I don't care.

I wouldn't leave $0.17 in this town,
much less $17.

But you're here.

I don't know.

You had Hershey's birth.

You heard?

Yeah.
You ought to look what you're sh**ting.

I'm sorry you got in front of me and I got
you started this whole thing.

Chris Hale. If you had knocked him down,
we wouldn't. Had no sh**ting at all.

If the ladies heard it's all you're doing
every time you come to this time.

Sorry. One and all. I'm sorry.

It was a nice, peaceful bank robbery,
and I'm sorry I messed it up.

Another sour one three in a row.

Here.

Give me about 5 minutes.

We split up, take three
different directions, we understand.

For five days.

You got to ask Saunders. Saunders?

Which one's got to be sweet?

Should go.

Am I hurt?

Haven't got down to it yet.

I don't know what's keeping it shot.

Good, Christopher.

Nobody sent for it.

Well, it's high time
somebody did go get the law.

Somebody.

Yes, sir.

Morning, Sheriff.

Morning.

What were.

Give me a roll of quarters. Aha.

I name for.

Was it.

Papa?

Oh, I'm sorry,

Carlos.

That's
my ma back a piece about a week ago.

Here alone in.

Spec. So

what are you going to do?

I don't. Again.

I figure the thing is to wait
until the burying was done.

Come to take one thing all at a time.

For one thing, I am of.

Well, it's like.

Getting to California.

You know,
I was kind of kind of set on that myself.

You going to California? Yeah.

Well, as a matter of fact, I was just
looking for an outfit to tie up with.

It would need a partner. Would you? I'm.

I think, on it.

You know, boy, like you, you just can't
go to California all by yourself.

I can try for you.

My name's Willie, man.

I'm Homer Pettigrew.

You wouldn't judge me
about going partners with you.

No, no. I'll sign right on in a minute.

The only thing is if we was partners,
we'd have to kind of

look after each other, trust each other,
if you know what I mean.

I ain't sure I do.

Well, if one of us was to need help,
for instance, why,

the other one would just naturally
help him without asking a fool question.

What kind of help you need?

You'll see in a minute.

So stick with me. Clean to California.

You got no promise.

All right.

All right.

Oh, would you do that for you?

Listen,

would you just come from over Peoria?

Homer,
you and me has been partners ever since

we left Peoria.

And you're an outlaw.

It's kind of a hard way of putting it,
Homer.

It's my trade.
We call it Riding the High Line.

I set for release here in the mouth.

I will see

if you meant what you said about us
being partners.

Who are you?

My name's Pettigrew.

Is here, sir. Here is my boy, Homer.

What can I do for you?

How long you been here, Homer?

Since last night. My.

A woman came down with cholera.

We just.

Just now, later away.

Homer, did you see anybody?

Right by in the last little bit.

Yeah, I did

go off in that direction
before another speck.

He's the one you're after.

Let's go.

And thanks, my

partner.

Maybe, but I ain't your friend.

Get that straight, outlaw.

I'm going to get to California.

Come lower.

High water, please.

Take it on out like a partner. I'll do it.

But don't expect me to make friends.

You got that?

I'll.

Yeah.

Yeah, I got that.

Good.

Was what?

All right.

Well, you just don't have to look
at the black side.

You know, she can't be hurt. Too bad.

You still don't get the point.

That wild shot of yours can turn
an undesirable female into a moderate.

She gets laid up and we're stuck with it.

Yeah,
I'm through in this town politically.

You all right, miss?

I guess so. I.

I don't know what made me faint
like that, though.

I don't usually.

Well, then let's get to the stage.

They're holding it up now, then going.

She won't be riding the stage.

Not for a few days anyway.

Where we she hit,

she'll find it painful to sit down.

Just the grave.

Then she can't ride the stage.

No, she's real sore.

I'm sorry.

I should have picked some other place.

Better yet,
I here to pick some other town.

You're the cause of all this.

You're darn well going to take her west
on your wagon train.

You're only going to Saunders anyway.

How would that be any different
from the state?

Well, you could make a cow for.

And she could ride lying down
like Cleopatra on the Nile.

And I don't happen to have an extra barge.

She rides
the train. She's got to have an outfit.

I'm sorry, Miss Jones,

but we just don't happen to have a place
for an odd woman.

Who says I'm odd.

Unless you wanted to buy a wagon.

Wait a minute.

In a.

Hurry.

We're looking for the wagon.

Master of the train.
That's camp up yonder.

That's me. What can I do about it?

Well, I like to join up with you
if you can run away to California.

My name is Willie Pettigrew.

Is. Here is my boy Homer.

Well, it

just so happens
we have a proposition for you.

Mr. Pettigrew, I'd like you to meet Miss
Clementine Jones here.

Miss Jones is isn't kind of effect
she wants to get a ride to.

Where was that, Miss Jones Thunder.

You can take it with you.

I'll find a place on the train point
where.

Oh, we just as soon. Not

Homer here, just lost is more.

Ah, you see, I don't.

The deal's off, Homer.

No women.

You let me handle it.

We'll take her. Good.

Oh, wait a minute.

Umbrella.

I'm ready.

You give me any trouble on up crust?

You up like a turkey?

Take you straight

here. Oh.

Oh, wait a minute.

Hold it.

I almost forgot.

Well, she needs something for your pillow.

Here for here.

All I came to town for was a.

Few bags of grain and a barrel of coal on.

How we doing, huh?

All right.

Jolly good. Oh.

Darling.

Yeah,

I would look real official.

Jerry, come here.

Come sit down.

Make yourself.

I'll be a happy man when I can shake
the dust of this long beard town.

That's the being.

So expect

you can't cook.

Who says I can't? Well, can you?

Sure I can.

Didn't know ladies like you that much.

Store for cooking and such punk.

Purity liquor, huh?

Flavor be Homer,

Get me the wrong thing.

Say, I'll say what I please.

Oh, no, you won't.
You'll be polite to your elders.

I'll give you the back of my hand.

It goes for you to your work permit.

Well.

Get out of here, Rebel.

He don't like either.

Is this. My.

Play?

Mother used to,

like, play it for a long time.

This cribbage board.

I used to play cribbage.

I don't know how.

I guess I don't know how to play anything
anymore.

It's going to be different
when I get to California. Why?

These can't be miserable everywhere.

I set my hopes too high if I was you.

Homer, California is just a place
like anyplace else.

Things are pretty much same everywhere.

Not in California.

A body can hope out there.

Hope and pray.

Have some kind of a chance.
It'll come true.

You can do that in California,
thanks to Fremont.

There it's different.

Read up on it.

Everything's different.

California

better fix the water.

Well.

Well what?

I'll check it to you.

I want to play.

I get ourselves in a tizzy.

Fleming were only going to be together
for four days.

We'll split up at Saunders.

I thought you were taking him
to California.

I'll get him another driver.

That's all he cares about.

Let's get the camp set up, huh? I

want to skip it, I suppose, huh?

Just pretend we're a couple of strangers.

Well, you remember Pandora.

She opened a box
and let loose a whole world of trouble.

Let's just keep it closed, shall we?

All right, now I'm up there. Cap.

Opening This

you always were. Oh.

In five years, you haven't changed.

One speck. Not one speck.

You don't want to face up to anything.

You just want to run out.

Run out, Run out.

You did run out my foot. I.

I was in jail.

You had the sense of a two year old.

You two waited for me instead of.

Instead of wood working in a saloon.

Well, I didn't.

Have to spell it out for you, did I?

Willie.

Let's not pick over a dead carcass.

No, we.

Clemmie, Let's just bury it and forget it.

All I knew was what you told me.

You said that night when you went away,
that you'd be back in the morning.

Well, you never showed up.
And I had some pretty good reasons.

I was in leg irons.
I was on a train to Portsmouth.

I stayed there three years.

When you could have written to me.

I did, but I never got it.

I waited a whole month.

I ran out of money, and then they put me
on the street when the rent was due.

What else could I do? Anything.

Anything at all. But what you did.

Now, that's not an unreasonable attitude
for a man to take, is it?

No, not for a man. Now.

I ruined my life working in a saloon
while you were preserving your sainthood

in the penitentiary. Sure.
That's the way a man looks at it.

You know, one of these days
we're going to get the vote.

And when we do, I'm going to campaign
for some new laws.

Well, here is one
law that eight on the statute books.

Close the box. Pandora,

one know

that.

How's your head.

Ever better

feel So good I can hardly stand it.

How. If you never mind.

Better keep that dog close by.

You can take care of himself.

Ralph, come here.

Well, he minds about as good as you do.

Oh, mobile wolves have come along.

Lead him off someplace, cut him to pieces.

Why would he do that?

Don't know.
Just the nature of the critter.

I guess that's just the way Lobo wolves,
his whole world is full of

wolves, is waiting for some dumb dog.

Come on.

Not in California.

Oh, Homer, you've been to California?

No. Then you just can do your driving
and you hang on to those dreams

until you find a different.

Why don't you try some on Rebel first?

What for?

Well, play it safe. Like an Italian duke.

I once read about was the only way
he could keep people from poisoning him.

He used up an awful lot of dogs.

He bad

and bad at all.

You know, That's the first nice thing
either of us said to me since we started.

Is your.

Coming along.

But tonight I think I just assume stand.

Very comer

wagging wagon of lions
having very common name.

What's so good about that?

We have to have very cover every Sunday
back home in Ohio, every sun in the world

fresh berries in the summer preserved ones
in where

that was before the w*r.

Of course, it seems like a lifetime ago.

We never had nothing
special on Sunday at all.

It's funny
how a thing like that can take you back.

Lord Homer, come on.

Come on,

Grandma.

I told Fred so.

Homer, We.
Ain't like him to run off before I'm up.

He's probably just out on the prairie
some place looking for a rabbit.

Now, get your boots on.

Go get some.

Water for me, Clyde.

Come on. I'll take their pants on.

Rebel.

Rebel,

eat your breakfast pants.

Well, something's happened to him.

I told you, he's out.

And Rabbit, he'll come back.

Go away.

Me? You don't want to make this fuss over
Curt. Oh.

You could. Go.

No, I got.

What do you mean?

From this God Rebel.

That's what I mean.

I like your back.

When you rode up.

I never had any kinfolk.

Never.

Just the two of them.

They hated me.

Bailey only took me out of that home
to do chores for them.

But I was glad
when they got to buy the car.

That's what I mean about Rebel.

That's all I got.

But Homer

got Why I.

Don't need you.

Oh, no.

Baby, I don't need. Him.

I'll go catch me a bath.

Right. Oh,

well.

Oh, oh.

Oh, well,

well.

You learned something today, didn't you?

You don't know.

Track with a word trap.

Oh, well.

That's a nice word, Acton.

Are you?

Just sit there
for the rest of your miserable life.

What do you.

A rebel?

Let's be sensible about this, shall we?

I don't care a nickel
about your miserable hide.

But you got a buddy back there who does,

so I'll just have to let you tear
my arm off.

You got to mine, too.

Ow, ow, ow, ow, ow.

Ow, ow! Man,

I'm not going to cut you with this, huh?

So just going to use it to pry off.

He was a smart dog instead of a dumb dog.

You'd bring yourself along a trap race before you went sniffing around in Buffalo.

I don't like

politics.

Oh, it's lucky he's not broken.

And get the blood back in it.

If you go fetch.

All right, All right.

I know you're grateful.

Let's go on. Home.

All right,

let's go.

Hero.

All right, Here

we are.

Are you sure you aren't picking
the roughest places just to play me?

That's exactly what I'm doing.

Woke up full of poison this morning.

Got to take it out on somebody.

With the berries on those bushes.

That was buffalo.

Buried deep. Pure.

Sweet Madeline Reminds me of that

berry cobbler
you were talking about as your mother.

Make it. Worse.

My mother.

Was in.

The Cook Reform School. I went to.

She took a real shine to me
when I was about your age.

How do you get into reform school?

It comes natural.

You're born worthless.

You don't have to figure out ways
of getting in the reform school.

Well, I don't think you're so worthless.

Well, I am. Now, I'll tell you one thing,
young fellow.

You turn out like me,
I'll wear the living daylights out of you.

You ain't. So bad off.

Now. That would be enough.

You're fat. Your box worse than your bite.

There's a big,
fat windbag. That's all you are.

Don't
you talk back to your old hero, Wacky.

Another one? You will not. I will too.

One more word out of you
and you will go to bed without any supper.

And while we're on the subject,
you take yourself a bath tonight.

Here you are, Laconia. They're a disgrace.

So they're my neck and ears.
Now, Blame. Will do what I want.

You'll do what? Plenty say here.

Oh, you're a fine one to talk.

You haven't shaved in a week.

Bad enough traveling with an outlaw.

Lord knows, without him being a messy one,
you got no armor working.

Now you hush up.

To fetch some water for the morning.

Yes, ma'am.

Chops and k*ll.

And to.

Nobody wants to play cribbage.

I don't know how to play cribbage.

When I say so.

You didn't ask me.

Well, do you

want to play?

If you have.

Sure.

I don't know why?

I never thought that

this never entered my mind
that you'd want to play

cribbage.

My play?

Yeah,

well, all men are different.

I guess not.

When I used to hate
you ever a certain magic.

And when I did shave,
I shave when I want to do not.

When some woman told me to shave,
I didn't sneak off and do it either.

And it does look a little cut off
with the pockets of that.

Clemens got nothing to do with it,
and I ain't cut off the pockets either.

Well, why did you sneak off him?

Well, we is out of hot water.

Besides, we get to town tomorrow.

I come over to clean up.

Anything wrong with that?

No, I guess not.

But if you're fretting about Homer,
you can put your mind at rest.

You can take over his wagon,
look out for him.

You can eat with us.

You are leaving us.

It's all news, aren't you?

Yeah.

I will fall out of sun up.

Tell your tribe we got 10 hours.

Hard going tomorrow.

Coming

at. Homer.

Oh, my. Come on, Lord.

Quite a crock.

We move out of here in half an hour.

Connie

Florentine.

Where you been?

I took a walk. She took off.

There's
no place to take a walk around here. No.

What would have happened. If I didn't?

Besides, I got a whole pale full of
buffalo buried by your confounded cobbler.

If you don't hush
up, I'll hope you choke on it.

Willie,

you shaved.

Oh, yeah?

Well, I shave because we get into town
tonight, and that's why I shaved

di shave every once in a while.

Just keep my hand in.

Why don't you fix breakfast?

Well, I tend to the horses.

Homer.

Oh, Got on, Homer.

Roll Art

just puts his hands is totally.

Which Medavoy.

Field.

Homer, How'd you get your hair
with your business, Homer?

And for me to go down the creek?

Yeah. When?

Last night. After you were sleeping.

What were you doing down there?

There were back.

To me to take on, so I took one all the.

I don't feel very good. Hey,

it broke last night.

What? You want to.

Take a bath for him alone?

At least burn it up.

There's a doctor like it.

Tell him to. Take a bath.

I'm sorry.

Will you?

All right.

But you will fix it.

Better put him in the wagon.

I'll go to the horses.

How are they.

Going to sleep?

Let him sleep as long as he can.

We got a long of it.

Oh, yeah?

How have our contract

with real

rabbits

all around? Well,

how funny.

Well, golly, California,

huh? Front.

Take the reins for a while.

You can drive a wagon, come off.

The wagon and.

I know you had tomato.

That's how this The train left.

Cinnabar last Saturday out.

We hated to leave.

We had to.

Where are we?

We'll be fine between us, Doctor.

There

you go.

Back to sleep.

So a light out when we get there.

Mr. Hill, another driver for you.

Take good care.

You clean to California, huh?

He'll be better off with anyway.

Nice clean cut, Gunther.

Well, market to.

Him is going to.

Yeah, I expect so.

You'll be.

Well, cannibals.

Reckon you're right.

I never should have took that back

to the Troubles about,
you know, some miserable out lot.

But you're right about a lot of things.

Like what, For instance.

California.

You're right about California's
just a place, that's all.

I've been in. Too much store by a place.

It's just a place

like we'd be miserable out there. See?

Where else?

Just the place that's all. Home
you want to make up your mind to?

You think it.

Already made up my mind?

Oh, God.

For places Mother

must stay at Saunders.

Don't that a crazy thing for a boy to see.

Who lives made up. Would you guess?

Just stop jabbering.

Go to sleep

now. Don't settle down too solid.

We'll roll in an hour.

How soon?

You figure we'll get solid all round.

Sundown. The way I've looked I was.

The boy was hot.

I feel a lot happier
if he was under a roof with the doctor.

I got a fire started.

I can offer you some coffee.

Oh, don't Mind if I do?

Let me help.

Thanks.

You just put it down over here for me.

Thank you.

The boy.

I'll sleep
if you don't make a racket with that ax.

All right.

I guess you saw that little confab
I had with the marshal this morning.

Marshal? Yeah. Oh, territory.

No one had his name on.

I don't know if I'd seen
a couple of riders heading toward Saunders

colors and tried to rob that bank
incentive.

Ah, you know, sake
seem like a pretty silly

waste of a good man's time
trying to run those valleys down.

And he should pay them
to stay in business.

Right.

So give the bank some confidence.

Oh, is that so?

Yes, it is.

I know what I'm talking about.

I saw them in action.

They were the clumsiest, stupidest,
most misbegotten

little group of bank robberies
the good Lord ever made.

What's so funny?

Don't you dare say. About whom are you?

Get back in, back, Cover up. Get.

I didn't mean to offend anybody.

You didn't.

Anyway, the marshal had the idea
those photos were heading for Saunders.

They caught one of them?

Yes. He spilled the beans.

So that marshal would probably go on into
Saunders and just settle down and wait.

He's right here.

The dumbest outlaw ever made.

Should have taken up another line of work.

When I want your opinion, I'll ask for it.

You wait. You see,
no one's going to be waiting for you.

When Saunders, with a nice 26 man
reception committee,

I can drive the wagon in from here.

I don't feel much like taking off at home,
Homer.

This way I can take care of him.

Festival? No.

If they are there,
how long can they put you away for?

Five years, if I'm lucky.

Five years.

Change his mind about California.

He ain't going.

Dreamed about it for years now.

He ain't going.

Who are not.

Well because of you and me.

I get mutton head kid.

Probably go to robbin banks or something
when he gets his growth.

No, I
wonder what would have happened to us

if you hadn't gone to robbin banks
and I hadn't gone to

working in a saloon.

I feel since coming on that that now.

I might have had a dress shop.

I always used to love to sew.

When I was a little girl.

My pa used to raise best hogs
in the state of Kentucky,

and that's what they told me. Anyway.

I always kind of thought,
maybe I'd like to raise hogs

when I.

How California is for Hargrave. Huh?

You won't find out any more than I will.

We'll pull into Saunders

and I'll get me a job at the Nuggets
Saloon and move into a jail wagon.

And five more years in the penitentiary.

So you think a man and learn wouldn't

just take 30 odd years to teach himself?

Really?

I won't take it.

Oh, Willie, don't be a dumb head
all your life, Clemmie.

I ain't going to leave Homer
when he's sick.

This way

you put your money back

and shut up.

Why don't you get them back?

Nope. Who?

You sure were behind the barn door
when the brains were packed up.

Let me.

I don't want to hide no more.

I just seem to have it over with.

Why do you want it over with?

I have this in my pocket
that I'm saving it

for either my wedding or my funeral.

What are your old brandy?

Yeah,

well, come on, drink up.

Be a shame if there was any luck
when no one comes for you.

What are you thinking about?

Oh, I was thinking.

Thinking
about that hog farm in California.

Guess I got the fever from Homer.

You reckon that I'd wait for five years?

I reckon I would. Huh?

It isn't pneumonia,
but he didn't miss it very much.

You're going to have to watch him
pretty close for the next few days.

Me? $2.

Pembroke

Here.

Thank you, ma'am.

Miss,

can the board travel?

If you keep him right where he is, he can.

Here, give him one of these
every 4 hours for the next couple of days.

Goodnight. My.

Get out of here.

You know.

Just sit right here and wait for him.

Really? No.

Honey, you listen here.

You take good care of him here.

You said you could get yourself a job
at a dress shop when you get it.

He's a good, strong boy,
and he can help you and he'll wait for me.

You here

with me?

Coming.

We can wash everything out.

We can wash out the bed
and start fresh in California.

I know we can.

I know we can.

Really?

California, Manchester Place,

State of mind,

different

going to be done

out of the boy?

He's going to be all right.

Good.

Well, I've just been up to town
looking for that marshal.

Funny thing
he'd already been there and gone.

They caught the second one of those would
be bank robbers and headed on east again.

The whole kit and caboodle.

I have a suspicion
if the other fellow would turn himself

in to Judge Corey at Saunders,

he might just get a suspended sentence,
providing

that the territory.

Well,

we'll be rolling out of Senate.

I, I,

i his.

Career probably primarily.

Not Snow.

Is that my grandfather?
